What is Hill Climber?

Since its release in 2012, the classic 2D physics-based racing game Hill Climb has attracted millions of players. In the game, you control Bill Newton driving custom-built vehicles across challenging hilly terrain. The Hill Climber, the default and most recognizable vehicle in the game—a sturdy, jeep-like vehicle ideal for conquering towering peaks—is the centerpiece of the experience.

How to Play Hill Climber

Accelerate and Brake

Your vehicle is propelled forward by the accelerator and decelerated or slowed down by the brakes. You can maintain balance by quickly pressing instead of holding down the buttons, especially when landing after a jump or climbing steep hills.

Maintaining balance is everything.

Your bike can flip forward if you brake too early, or it can flip backward if you accelerate too quickly. The key to surviving longer races is keeping your bike stable.

Professional Tips for Mastering Hill Climb Racing

  • Maintaining balance is crucial: When climbing, use the brakes to lean your bike forward.
  • Strategic Upgrades: Prioritize upgrading your hill climb bike's suspension and engine.
  • Flip-ing on landings is the ideal way to earn bonus points in the Adventure Series.
  • Fuel Management: To save fuel, roll downhill.
  • Try different bikes: Hill Climb Bikes are great in the early stages, but move on to more specialized bikes.

Hill Climb offers a wealth of thrills as you climb, whether you're a seasoned racer chasing a distance record or a beginner flipping on your first hill.

Why are hill climbing games so popular?

Easy to Learn, Hard to Master

Anyone can start playing immediately with just a few controls. However, skill is needed to progress—balancing timing, speed, and vehicle control keeps you engaged as you strive to improve.

Fun Physics

Unpredictable moments—perfect landings, sudden flips, and near-misses—are created by the physics-based gameplay. These experiences are fun, sometimes hilarious, and always encourage you to "try again."

Perfect for Short Play Sessions

Hill climbing games are perfect for casual play because each session is short. Whether you play for a minute or an hour, it's always satisfying.
